4 weeks without caffeine and feeling discouraged !!

I was NOT a heavy caffeine user but I was very sensitive to it. One iced latte would hype me up like crazy for an hour but the come down would bring my mood down and make me foggy and emotional - which is why I wanted to quit.

I was having MAYBE 50mg-80mg of caffeine per day at most.

Now, at 4 weeks without caffeine, I feel FLAT and unmotivated. I keep waiting for my personality to come back! I honestly felt better on caffeine, even with its bad effects.

I’m doubting that my low mood and brain fog could still be from caffeine withdrawal given the low and inconsistent amount I was drinking.

How long do I hold out??!!! Need some hope 😮‍💨😩

PS I’ve indulged in a little chocolate here and there. Is that enough to set me back?
